Newbie seeking support – I am so sorry for your experience. What you are describing is a man who is, at best, a player, and at worst, disordered. He is probably already involved, perhaps with multiple other women. At one time you were the priority, and now someone else is.

All the talking and laughing in the beginning were designed to reel you in. Either he did it just to entertain himself, or a better target has come along. In any event, please understand that he doesn’t love you and never did.

The best thing you can do is cut him out of your life. Do not respond to any texts or calls. Even if he reaches out to you again, claiming he made a huge mistake and you’re the best thing that ever happened to him, ignore him. In fact, you should block him on all your devices so that you don’t even see his messages.
